TASK 2: Visual Analysis
LECTURE
- Visual analysis refers to the process of rationally of rationally examining data with the support of a visual and interactive interface.
- Visual analysis needs to have observation, Analysis, Interpretation.
The instruction for the visual analysis for the artwork that we have chosen to study all the design principles in the artwork and to put it all down. The above is what we supposed to be doing as doing the analysis.
LECTURE
TASK 2
- On this task, we need to recap Task 2 brief (In lecture 1)
- Write a 300 to 350 words visual analysis of the selected design.
- Include references links where applicable for this part.
DETAILS
Name of Artist: Jenna Wellein
Artwork: Rising
Year: Unknown
Size: Unknown
The design principles I found on these painting is mostly movement and repetition within the colors as they slightly mix with each other.
1. Observations
As observing the painting as it is in portrait form, but it will also look good in landscape. As the flow in the painting looks like a wave as the colors combined together in the same movement, makes me feel like am floating in the ocean on the waves as the colors is going in the same direction it blends well within the colors.
2. Analysis
The flow in the artwork it is well balance within the colors that makes it stand out. A gradient from light to dark as if it flows like are the ocean on the calmness of the waves, as the blending between the colors makes it more interesting to observe, leading the viewers focusing on the gradient flowing mixing with the colors, The texture of the painting looks thick as looking very closely the stroke of the paint brush or maybe a pallet knife also has been used to make this painting. The colors are not that vibrant the artist has used cool colors for the painting too great a clam feeling within the artwork.
3. Interpretation
Jenne Wellein's painting that has inspired by the artist Vincent Van Gogh the famous artist back in the 80s with his oil paintings, same as Jenne she used oil paint the gradient of colors in her artwork from light to dark is the same texture in the starry night painting.
These are some examples of oil paint and also int the rule of third in some of the painting also by using the same technique as the painting i have choose above by Jenna Willein.
These are my observations that i was analyzing from my reference above on what type ideas for my work am coming by focusing on the sea turtles shell but is more on the pattern side and the texture within the shell, as we can see in the photos above there are different types of patterns on the surface of the shell being by the amazing work of mother nature itself creating such an incredible animal in our ocean.
As i got inspired the work of Vincent van Gogh of the stary night the same as the pattern on the sea turtles shell having the same movement and flow like the wave example above as the artwork i have chosen before from my task 1 exploration where i continue with the same movement and flow that brought me to the sea turtles.
I choose sea turtle for continues work because retaliating with the USDF goals but with the same concept movement and also the second artist that i have chosen Maurits Cornelis Escher a pattern repetition artist that it is also seen in the turtles shell the repetitions of patterns of colors and texture within the small squares of the shell.
RELATION OF THE ARTWORK AND USDG GOALS
In May 2023 UNDESA and UNFCCC Secretariat co-convened the Expert Group on Climate and SDG Synergy. The Group consists of 14 renowned experts from diverse thematic and geographic backgrounds who were given the task of developing the First Global Report on Climate and SDG Synergies.
Today for the Goal 14 life under water i would focus on our turtles they are being hunted and killed and being rear because of our negligence of rather taking care of them and let them reproduce we fish for them and through their habitat "shell" in places that people won't but the is not something to do, that some of these fishman do in Seychelles this kind of issues is very common and they sell the meat of the turtles. But there are laws for that that if they get caught is prison, but they still do it anyways.
For this like is said life under water but i want to show awareness and knowledge or perception about the turtles.
The goal 14 "life under water" is an example of the turtles.
THE POACHING OF THE SEA TURTLES
The Seychelles’ Department of Environment has observed a drastic increase in sea turtle poaching and has therefore increased its monitoring and surveillance efforts, said a top official.
The department’s director of conservation, Ashley Dias, told SNA on Thursday that the nesting season has barely started and the authorities have recorded 14 cases of poaching compared with eight cases for the whole season last year.
“As a result conservationists have increased monitoring efforts and surveillance, patrolling the beaches where we know turtles come to nest. We are also going hard on our educational programme to sensitise the public on the danger and consequences of poaching,” said Dias.
Seychelles, an archipelago in the western Indian Ocean, is home to one of the world’s largest populations of green and hawksbill turtle.
The green turtle breeds all over the islands throughout the year, unlike the hawksbill turtle which breed mostly between mid-October and mid- January. Both species are on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s (IUCN) red list. Green turtles are classified as endangered while the hawksbills are critically endangered.
These are some examples of cruelty of the sea turtle go through the is how fishermen do with them fishing for the meat to sale before in Seychelles is rare and a crime to eat and sale sea turtle meat for money and will send for life in prison if they are caught because our marine government protects them of harm.
FEEDBACK
WEEK 4
Specific feedback - I asked Dr Charles for advice on the topic and line that am going with that i want to incorporate two artists in my work, my first artist and a pattern repetition artist also and discussing that i wanted to do free hand that he told me to go for it.
REFLECTIONS
Experience
It is important that after every work that we are doing to us reflect on to understand the concept and the facts also about our knowledge of investigating on the topic that we have chosen by knowing every detail about the topic itself for example color, media, style, artist and many more from that, but it is also good that we do not complicate ourselves by when doing the researches and gathering the data's and information and specifics details we are looking for.
Observation
Like I have said above it is very important to pay attention to the details when observing your chosen artwork and most important see by seeing what the artist is passing through its art if the artist is passing a message is good to have an artistic eye looking thing that people do not see just by looking an artwork.
Findings
When studying and analyzing an artwork is not by just the basic color, texture, style and form is by describing what is the art saying not just by what you see by what you cannot see, and there is not just painting and digital art there more than those creative things.
